The World of Baranov
Level 5
: 150/300, 25 ante
Sergii Baranov featured a lot in our WSOPE coverage last year due to his colourful play and conversation at the table. Marcin Horecki just felt that force in a negative way.
There was a bunch of chips already in the middle making us believe the pot was three-bet before the were fanned out in front of the players.
Baranov bet 2,250 at that juncture, 6,100 on the turn and emptied the clip with a 10,500 bet on the river. The Team PokerStars pro player called all the way and gave out a surprised sound when Baranov opened for trips!
“What?” shouted Baranov. “Ha ha ha ha!” he continued in dark tones.
